Hoooold up just a minute. How much do these glasses cost? Like hundreds right? What kind of teen boy has that much money to burn? I sure as fuck didn't, and I worked. Their parents bought them, and these are kids, so it's 100% blame on the parents here.
I had thousands as a teenager from around 15 years old working part time evening and weekends at barely above minimum wage.
When you have no expenses from living at home, you can save everything (and in my case blow it all on electronics lol)
Ok, middle school then
Parents with more money than sense
It's not much different than a kid asking for a playstation or iphone for Christmas
It is because you dont use your playstation to harass girls at school
they can already use their phone for that
Those are also banned in class, or they should be, every school has different policies of course.
they mostly aren't banned yet
